Book Description
Mary Cowden Clarke (1809-98) was the daughter of the publisher Vincent Novello. She produced a complete concordance to Shakespeare's works in 1845, and her fascination with the plays led to her publishing in 1850 a series of imaginative accounts of the girlhood of some of his heroines. Her motive was 'to imagine the possible circumstances and influences of scene, event, and associate, surrounding the infant life of his heroines, which might have conduced to originate and foster those germs of character recognised in their maturity as by him developed; to conjecture what might have been the first imperfect dawnings of that which he has shown us in the meridian blaze of perfection'. These 'prequels' offer a back-story which is surprising in its subversive interpretation of the plays and especially of the role of the 'hero'. Volume 2 includes the stories of Ophelia and Juliet.

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1851 edition. Excerpt: ... TALE II THE THANE'S DAUGHTER. "I would not have such a heart in my bosom, for the dignity of the whole body." Macbeth. The night-wind howled and swept over the heathy plains that surrounded the castle. It drove on shriekingly; then paused; and then the sharp lashings of the rain-storm pelted onward before its fierce will. The distant hills were hung with mist; and when the flashes of lightning darted a momentary glare upon all around, they served but to illumine the dense dank veil that shrouded castle, hill, and valley. Dismally and wailingly the gust panted on, lamenting; and but held in its mighty breath to take fresh force for the next burst of rage. Moaning and plaintive, it lulled and halted; then screaming and hurling wildly on, it poured forth its fury, aloud, abroad, aloft, scattering clouds and mists, wrenching trees from their rooted firmness, dashing the waters of Stream, lake, and torrent, and filling the sky with uproar and tempest. Round the walls and battlements of the castle it, beat, and tore, and raved; the rain whirled its sheeted drifts against the stony security, as if mad with impotent endeavours to penetrate the building, and whelm all beneath its washing inundation; the lightning darted fiery threats amid turret and tower, in vivid, sudden, quick-succeeding flashes; while the deep-rolling thunder mingled its awful menaces with the howls and complainings of the wind. The wrath of nature seemed striving to find voice in the tumult of the vengeful elements; as these storm-ministers still beat, and tore, and raved round the castle walls. For within these walls--in one of the upper chambers of the castle--lay one in the pangs of travail; and that night a child was born into the world, destined to read a world-wide...

Book Description
Excerpt from The Girlhood of Shakespeare's Heroines in a Series of Tales, Vol. 5 Going to him I Do you know how far it is to the frozen regions whither culprits are banished, little one asked the man. Yes I know it is a long way off - but I have managed to come nearly a fourth of my journey, and I shall get through the rest, never fear. Never fear But don't you fear It's a fear ful way, and a fearful place when you get there. I know it is but if it's bad for me, it's bad for my father - and it will make the place better for him if he have his little Paulina with him, to help him bear its fearfulness. I am not speaking of what it is to him it would be more tolerable to him, I dare say, with his child to keep him company there but what I mean is, that it will be a terrible place for you - you don't know its horrors.
